Welcome..As Super Mario said 3 months is really early into your recovery. I know it is hard to be patient but brains heal slowly. I too had problems with crowded places...I think for me it also involved and still does the fear of being bumped into as my balance is not what it was. I work around it best I can and find I am able to do pretty much everything I did before. I had anxiety after and found seeing a counselor helped me but time has also helped. Go slow and steady, be gentle with yourself. xx Jean

Quite a milestone, congrats xx Jean

The doctors told me that they couldn't find a cause for me ...they didn't see a sac that would have indicated an aneurysm but it was still possible it could have been. As for concussions never had one that I was aware of but rode horses growing up and took many a tough tumble. I have issues with my neck that the doctor suspects happened as a child, so who knows. Jean

Congratulations Jess on 21 years... Take care xx Jean

Hi Tina, Hubby and I actually booked another trip to Mexico for October...every year I am fearful it will be my last but thank goodness feeling confident and well and it is booked Thank you for all your suppport, I appreciate it. xx Jean

Today 6 years ago I was feeling pretty good as I was sent home from the hospital with my SAH in very good shape only to be slammed to the floor one day later with severe vasospasm. Thank goodness that is all 6 years in the rear view mirror. I actually forgot this year (thinking that may be a good thing)... I still have balance issues and feel like I am walking on a boat, which is bothersome ( I can't lie I do not like it) but all in all I am good. I am thankful and I have lived a lot of life in these 6 years I have been blessed to have. I have seen a son get married and the birth of 2 more grand children that I play with everyday. This site and those here who so generously give of themselves supporting and encouraging us all is a gift, I am forever thankful for finding it. thank you all, xx Jean

Like Super Mario I found volunteering to be a good up lifting thing. I sat on it for a while thinking what is something that I have always had a liking for but have put it aside for things like being busy with work family and such... Animals was my answer, I have always loved and been interested in animals. Became a zoo volunteer... I have moved now a bit of a distance from the zoo so I am looking for something new. Again the animals interest me so I have been watching birds all winter and just watched a owl mama and her babies grow. Just ordered a humming bird feeder will put it out first of May. I have some books and there is an app on the phone if I take there picture it tells me what it is. Sorry I don't mean to go on and on...hope it helps.. Jean

Congratulations on 5 years...I am in my 5th year as well and if feels like a milestone to me. Wonderful you are traveling. Enjoy every hour, day and year, wishing you good health. xx Jean
